Communicating with the public about their science isn't something that all scientists do, nor is it something that they all do well. This talk will discuss how our language science lab inside the Center of Science and Industry (COSI) teaches Ohio State students how to promote science understanding about language. Our research shows the impact of our methods on museum visitors as well as on students themselves. This event is free and open to the public. We ask that you kindly RSVP using the updated form below, but registration is not required to attend the lecture. Seating will be on a first come, first served basis.
